RTS Threshold — The smallest packet size (in bytes) used by the Request to
Send/Clear to Send handshaking protocol. The recommended value is 2347. If
you are experiencing inconsistent data flow, you can make minor changes to this
value to try to alleviate the problem.
·
Fragmentation Threshold — The largest allowable size (in bytes) for a packet. If

network performance. It is recommended to keep this value as large as possible
(up to 2346).
